it. Therein lies the problem‚ however‚ because the more we use it‚ the less there is. We have to find alternative forms of energy before it is gone and we are left high and dry. Not only is our sources decreasing‚ it is also polluting our beautiful world. Reducing the use of energy and finding alternatives is our only choice when considering the future of America. Cheap gas may sound great right now but once it is gone‚ it is gone for good. We cannot be selfish and only think of the now‚ we must look

Energy use is one of the most important issues in the world today. People are starting to run out of energy already now‚ and in the future more and more energy is likely to be increasingly needed since the world population is growing. Fossil fuels are the main resources for energy at present. According to many predictions‚ we are going to run out of oil in 40 years and coal in 75-150 years. People were using these effective but non-renewable energy sources as much as they wanted for many centuries

Even though evidently in the modern world it is becoming more and more alleged that we can develop without damaging nature there are still strong opposing arguments to this notion. Development needs economic growth and economic growth is very needy for industry which requirements energy resources. Currently the range of supplies that are obtained by common people has matured significantly compared to the old times. Now people feel the need‚ not just for as a piece of bread and a roof over their heads

The world fuel supply‚ he claims‚ “will peak by 2010 and be down to half that level by 2025-30” (Campbell‚ 2006‚ p.24). The world is facing the crisis of running out of fossil fuels‚ and this situation will cause negative effects on environmental and economic problems. The processes of burning amount of fossil fuels
